I Iz Back!

First of all, I would like to apologize for not posting the last couple of weeks but I have returned.

Showcase: helverin upgrade

Back when Forgebane came out, I built and painted up one of the armiger warglaives.  While building it, I thought that they would release another load out later on, so I magnetized the arms. I am glad I did.

Showcase: Hive Guard

After finishing with the Morathi models I decided to go back to my roots and finish my set of hive guard.

Showcase: Mini Morathi

 So, it is a new week and I actually had some time this weekend to do a bit of hobby-ing.  My last post I completed the large Morathi model. Well, today I have pictures of the other half of that unit, the small Morathi model.

This model seemed to paint up quickly.  I started with the red and, before I knew it, I was finishing up the base and gluing down the basing material. While painting her, I ran into a couple of problems.

My first problem was that the arm with the spear came off.  I decided that I would use that to my advantange and work around the spots that were hard to get to if the spear was there.  A part of me wished to do this with her head, since the hair block some of the details on her dress and back but in the end I didn't.

Speaking of her hair, deciding which color to paint it was theother problem I had while working on the model.  I thought about matching it the the hair from the other models from the Daughters army and go with a blue.  I also thought about what the hair becomes when the model transforms into the larger model.  In the end, I decided to match the hair with the snakes on the larger model.  While I think matching the army would be nice, I thought matching the larger version made more sense.

Completing this model finishes my pledge for the month.  I am free to move on to other projects.  I have several in the works. I think I need to try to work on some 40k models since I have had worked on a lot of AoS lately.  Hopefully, I can even find a game this Thursday. We shall see.

Have a good week!

Questions? Comments? Hissss!

Showcase: Morathi

 

Ever since I saw this model I have wanted to own it.  Today I have completed (after a couple of touch ups) the model and I am really happy with how it turned out.

WIP: Morathi

This weekend I had some time to build both the chibi Morathi and the monster Morathi over a couple of days.
